Homojapuals of Evilbore: I will try out your so-called "Gundam"
« on: November 09, 2007, 06:05:19 PM »
Name one easily obtainable Gundam series that I can watch without any prerequisite knowledge, and I shall give it a fair shake.

Brevity is preferred, so try to keep things under, say, 30 episodes, or around about there.

Unfortunately, I can't agree with Himu.  0079 is a very old show so it might be hard for you to get into.  Borrow 8th MS Team from MAF.  Doesn't require any previous knowledge of the franchise.  It's also only 13 episodes or so.

Please give it a fair shake, tho...you're a smart guy so I'm sure if you go in with the mindset of looking things to make fun of, mock, or satirize, you could find plenty.  But if you go in with the mindset "I'm going to try to enjoy this," I think you will.

11 plus a bonus episode so 12.

I still say the movie trilogy is the best Gundam to try out. He won't care about Feds or Zeeks or anything like that if he has no previous history with the armies

08th MS Team is awesome.  It's probably the best of the Gundam OAV series, though I personally prefer 0080 because I like Bernie.

Ichirou: i don't think the animation is that bad in the first series. I mean, when you compare it to other animated tv series that were airing in 1979 like Super Friends, it's pretty damn good.

08th MS Team is awesome.  It's probably the best of the Gundam OAV series, though I personally prefer 0080 because I like Bernie.

Same case here.  :-\

The other problem with the movies is that they compress a 40-odd episode series into six hours, which can be a bit overwhelming.  If TVC likes 08th MS Team, he can watch the movies later to pick up on some of the background.

The movies have way too much story to cover, that's why.

The best way to experience the first series is to just watch the first series.  Too bad it's only available in dub form in the States.

dcharlie, your wife is incredibly awesome.  It's true, the mid-90s brought about the gay-ification of Gundam with all the lame alternate universe series and impractical Gundam designs from G Gundam and Gundam Wing (Seed continued the tradition of having hilariously bad mecha design).

He's from G Gundam, which is a very wacky Gundam series where all the Gundams are piloted by martial artists.  There's a big competition every few years where every country sends out its own Gundam to battle other countries' Gundams.

Master Asia (a.k.a. Toho Fuhai, Undefeated of the East) is one of the most important characters from G Gundam, he was Domon Kasshu's (protagonist) martial arts instructor and the winner of the last Gundam fight.

G Gundam is an alternate universe series, it doesn't take place in the same continuity as the rest of the shows (such as 08th MS Team).  It's basically a parody/homage to the ridiculous super robot shows of the '70s.

Himu probably doesn't like it because he's embarassed that it's so completely different in tone to every Gundam that came before and after it.  But it's still ridiculous, hilarious, and fun.

The only Gundam I have seen is Wing and I think its very weird.  The main character is a 10 year-old kid that behaves like a asocial 70-year-old war veteran.

He's like 17, and he's been basically programmed to pilot and kill people.

Gundam Wing sucks. :P

G Gundam has a German ninja named Schwarz Bruder:

Mechanical designs are lame.  Story is stupid and incoherent.  Battles basically consist of enemy mobile suits standing still while the Gundams destroy them.  Characters were designed to pander to a female audience to broaden Gundam's mass market appeal.  It's shit.

He's like 17 or something.

Anyways, Gundam Wing isn't bad. It's definitely better than G Gundam. Gundam Wing is hilarious. I'LL KILL YOU.

Eduardo: start with the gundam trilogy instead of 08th MS.

I did a search for the quote from Endless Waltz and found this essay I'm sure TVC will appreciate

Quote
  The would history was like a waltz, peace, revolution, and war. Now, 2007, U.S.A is fighting against Iraq. So, 2007 is in war. Not only war is in Iraq, but also civil war or terrorism is in some other country. However, there is not only but thing. Today, there are two types of computers here, Windows and Macintosh. Both are fighting to get computer users. It looks like war. There are many waltzes in the world; histories, computers, and transports.

World history is always with war. But after the war, there comes peace. Union of Soviet Socialist Republics had gone on 1991. It was revolution. After, the U.S became the largest country. Every country tries to fight against the U.S. like WW2. It is peace. However, there are civil wars in many countries. So, people ever cannot judge the world history. It has different sides.

  Microsoft and Apple are one of the most popular computer companies. The first computer was made in 1975. Then there is no any other computer. So first computer could not fight. It is peace. Some years later, Microsoft made Windows series on 1985. Apple made new computer on 1990’s. These are revolution. Now, Microsoft and Apple are fighting each other to get users. It is war.

  There are many transportation In Japan. Trains, buses, and airlines are fighting each other to get customers. It is war. there are no airlines on 1960's. there are only train like "Shinkansen". The beginning of 1990's, airlines were not useful yet. there were still peace. The end of 1990's, airlines became useful.

  In conclusion, there is war always. but it is not bad thing. Peace will come after war. However, in fact, many people were killed in war. Therefere nobady cannot jadge to history good or bad.

HyperZone: Get the original OAV series.  If you like that, get the TV series boxes, and the second OAV series (which is a follow-up to the TV show).

After that, you can get the movies (the movies are set in the same continuity as the first OAV series, which is a different continuity from the TV show and second OAV series...I know, it's confusing).

dcharlie, I've never met or spoken to your wife, but I can already tell she's way cooler than you.  TVC, I think most people agree you should start off with 08th MS Team.

I know a lot of white people who think they know anything about minorities and constantly make quips about what makes a ______ minority. I don't think they've actually met a ________ minority either.

I mean, anyone who black dudes our age KNOWS we love fighting games. If you go to fighting game tournament, if you don't see multiple negroes, you will see at least a few. niccas love fighting games. We love rpgs too, it's just that, unlike white people, we don't talk about that shit in real life.

Graviton bombs destroyed

A Colecovision-every week I'd visit
Playing Donkey Kong Jr., Venture, Rock and Rope
Games I thought was dope
While my moms was watching soaps

I got a double barrel shotgun in the Doomworld
Waiting on the next devil

We love rpgs too, it's just that, unlike white people, we don't talk about that shit in real life.

There is no such thing as "Burning Gundam."  That's the American renaming because they didn't want to offend Evangelicals and crackpot christians.  Its real name is God Gundam.

And it is most certainly not gay.  That honor goes to Gundam Rose, the French Gundam that fights with flowers.

I kind of like the name Burning Gundam better.  The word god being used in the naming of any military equipment in any civilized society with any parallels to our own is more unbelievable than, say, giant fighting robots that are in no way efficient for actual combat.

The Gundams from G Gundam aren't military equipment, they're basically giant robotic pro wrestlers.

Well, that makes God in the name perfectly understandable then, now doesn't it?

I am pirating 8th MS Team as we speak, and since it is short, I may watch it before Naruto.  If you have any recommendations for next Gundam series after that, lemme know and I will queue up.  I have no problem with older shows. In fact, I'd kind of prefer something older.

If you don't mind old/dated animation, then go with Himu's recommendation and watch the original Mobile Suit Gundam movie series.

Other short Gundam shows: 0080: War in the Pocket (6 episodes), and 0083: Stardust Memory (13 episodes).  Stardust Memory has gorgeous animation but the story's not that great since it's meant to connect the original MSG series (which takes place in 0079) to Zeta Gundam (which takes place in 0087).

My personal favorite Gundam series is Turn A Gundam, you can probably find fansubs of it easily enough.  It's a long series, though...so just watch it if you like the other stuff.

P.S. It's also called God Gundam because its arch-enemy in the show is called Devil Gundam, lulz.

I have seen 4 episodes of 08th MS Team so far, good shit :D

The Gundams are not the Super sayan that they are in Wing, and the fights are a bit more interesting with cover, camo and tactics and shit.  Good stuff.
